Zainab Shinkafi-Bagudu: Introducing the Patient Access to Care program

Zainab Shinkafi-Bagudu shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Introducing the Patient Access to Care (PACE) program—an important initiative in my commitment as a cancer advocate to ensure patient access to treatment and care.

Built on the success of the 2019 One Call Away project, PACE provides affordable access to a wide range of cancer treatments, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, diagnostics, surgical interventions and support.

By partnering with pharmaceutical companies, we aim to bridge the gap in cancer care, particularly for underprivileged patients.

Despite the challenges, PACE is dedicated to improving the quality of life for all cancer patients through comprehensive support and care. In the last 5 years, PACE has supported 150 patients in chemotherapy and drug payments, assisted 3720 patients in screening and recorded over $43,000 in subsidy for its beneficiaries.

Let’s stand united in the fight against cancer. Support the PACE program today and help us provide life-saving treatments to those who need them most. Your contribution can bring hope and healing to countless lives—get involved now.
